Tandem Paragliding in Chamonix

A tandem paragliding flight in Chamonix lets you admire the valley and the Mont Blanc massif from the air. It’s simply extraordinary! An unforgettable experience!

The discovery flights from Planpraz and Plan de l’Aiguille are available for ages 4 to 99. Other flights have their own requirements, listed in their descriptions. For a child, an older person or any special circumstances, contact David before booking to choose a suitable flight and time.

It’s very easy! No paragliding experience is needed: the essential instructions are explained before take-off, then you enjoy the scenery during the flight.

Take-off requires a few running steps down a gentle slope. The wind conditions on the day influence the running speed required. When getting in touch, share your age, height, weight and any useful information: David can advise you on the most suitable time.

For the discovery flights from Planpraz and Plan de l’Aiguille: The flight lasts approximately 20 to 25 minutes. Allow around 1 hour for the Planpraz flight, including the meeting and preparation and 1 hour 30 minutes for Plan de l’Aiguille. Flight duration naturally varies with the flying conditions. The durations of the other flights are listed in their descriptions.

Wear closed shoes suitable for running, with good soles, trousers and a warm or windproof layer. At altitude, the air can be cool even in summer. Sunglasses are also useful. David will explain what equipment you need and advise you for the day of your flight.

Lift tickets are paid for separately by the passenger. Prices vary depending on the take-off site: approximately €20 per adult for Planpraz and Plan de l’Aiguille. If you already have a day pass, ski pass or another lift pass, let David know.

David confirms the meeting place and time directly with you when you book. The meeting point varies depending on your chosen flight, lift opening times and the conditions on the day. The two main meeting points are outside the Aiguille du Midi ticket office (100 place de l’Aiguille du Midi, 74400 Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, France) or outside the Brévent ticket office (29 route Henriette d’Angeville, 74400 Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, France).

Paragliding depends on wind, air currents and weather conditions. The decision to fly is made on site, with safety as the priority. Contact David as early as possible: he will explain the booking options according to the conditions and the length of your stay in Chamonix.

An educational video option is available. Discuss it with David when booking or before take-off.
